so i buy the BM59 gas cylinder and break and send it along with all the regular Garand parts? i have a new spring kit. do you just cut down the op-rod spring to fit or use as is? how often are guys changing the spring? 1000 rds.?
Also need to include a signed blank check:)Quote:

I like 500 rounds. I use a special spring on the G, but not the G mag fed. I take your oprod spring in trade.Quote:

do you think the reason that it needs changing more often is because of less coils to absord the load? i would have you do a standard enbloc Mini-G. no mag conversion. sounds like a pretty straight forward conversion. any thing else i should consider before hand?

Good news though, the Wolff highpower tanker spring can be had right at Midway or directly from Wolff. When I do a conversion the old package from the spring comes with the rifle so you know what to order.
thanks Tim.
My pleasure sir.Quote:
